#but also twilight appreciation ?

[twilight-zoned-out]

Some things about Allan:

He’s the only one who reacts to the narrator

He’s the only doll (besides the Weird House) who isn’t swayed in some way by Ken’s takeover

He also declares himself as “Ken's buddy" (making canon his official box description) which makes his inability to be swayed more interesting

He has bendable legs (probably the only reason he tries to jump the fence instead of going around like everyone else)

He easily decked a half-dozen construction Kens and could probably singlehandedly win the Ken fight

He seems to know more about the real world than most Barbies

He knows what NSYNC is 

He knows about other Allan copies living in the real world (I’m trying to figure out if he made this up to convince the humans he can live in the real world, but even if he did, how does he know what NSYNC is???)

There are no other Allan models

This is possibly the most powerful moment in the series thus far— I will die on this hill.

Brace yourselves.

(I know I am.)

This weekend, I shall begin blind reading the book (my first experience of the Twilight books or movies outside of internet memes and general information osmosis) and recording my insights. I think I will post them in chapter chunks, for organization and so as not to overwhelm my dashboard with Twilight content (the horror).

For those wishing to tag along on what I hope will be an entertaining ride (for you all if not for me), or for those who wish to continue in blissful denial that the Twilight series exists, I will be tagging my reports with “river reads midnight sun”! If this endeavor does NOT prove sufficiently entertaining, I give myself leave to spare myself further agony, because why should the clown cry in public if no one is there to laugh at her tears? So basically ya’ll can continue my self-inflicted torment by interacting with the posts or sending asks or whatnot you heathens.

Also, fun(???) fact: I looked up the wordcount because my WORD this book is SO THICK, and turns out the original Twilight was 118,975 words. Midnight Sun is (drumroll please) . . .

240,095 words.

I trust you lot to remind me later that I did it for the vine (or whatever the current equivalent is).

P.S. The hat and jacket have nothing to do with the book; I was just wearing some of my steampunk gear around on errands and it happened to make a really cool picture. XD

Blood Drops on Roses: Bargaining: The Third Stage of Grief (20/80)

“Let’s shake on it.” Twilight stuck his hand out, then drew back, saying, “Just… nothing too crazy, alright?”

‘You owe me, you owe me.’ Wild raised a perfunctory eyebrow as Twilight squirmed. ‘Anything else isn't a part of the deal.’

“No, I guess it isn’t.” Twilight said, defeated, as he stuck his hand out once more. He looked queasy as they clasped hands. He paused a step. “And Wild?”

‘Yeah?’

“Watch the spice. They ain’t from here.”

‘Spoil sport.’

Ep 6!!!

Hiiiiii! I just want you to know that as a fellow day defender, I totally agree with you about your opinion of night and day’s situation. People keep saying that day is a bad guy since he treated night like that without knowing the reason behind it. I read the novel btw and thought that if I’m in day’s shoes, I’d probably be acting the same way as day. He just needs time to heal and I totally understand that. I hope people can consider day’s feelings too, not just night’s.

HIII FRIEND HIIIIIII!!!!!!!!

first of all, i wanted to thank you for not giving away any spoilers even if you've already read the novel!!!!! i don't take that for granted because not everyone is so considerate, so i really appreciate it!!!!!

about night and day's situation, im so incredibly glad that you agree with my thoughts on it!!!!! maybe it's because i feel very protective of day as a character, but it's been pretty hard to see him bear the brunt of people's criticism, first with the whole mork vs august affair and now with night. i know it's natural to sympathize with night because we don't have an explanation for day's behavior yet, and regardless of what happened it will never be an excuse for lashing out like that, but at the same time it's kinda upsetting to have day's feelings being constantly dismissed. like being in night's presence makes day feel SO BAD that one time he was literally willing to step in the middle of the street without being able to see rather than staying in the same space as night, and another time he was ready to give up attending aon's wedding (which he really cares about) and would have gone back to isolate himself from the world if it wasn't for mork, and i just think this should be taken into account a little bit more

i also think it's not a matter of who's right or who's wrong, because unlike what night said there are actually no villains and no heroes here. the narrative isn't pushing the audience to side with a character or another, on the contrary it's trying to make the viewers understand both points of view: night's attempts to be a good brother and reconnect with day are commendable and it's indeed both very sad and very frustrating to see day constantly reject them so cruelly, but day has only now started to accept his disability after an entire year of isolation where he was made feel like he could no longer take care of himself and live a fulfilling life, and like you said i think he should be allowed the time to heal (and eventually to forgive night, if he is actually involved in the accident that made day lose his sight)

in the end they're both just two boys with a lot of misunderstandings and unspoken feelings between them who are trying to do their best and i think it's unfair to pit them against each other

THE MOON IS SO BIG TONIGHT

- hero-of-the-wolf

Djskfjidkejsdkg I saw it it was so cool!

I knew it was the solstice so spent a while looking at her while walking Stitch, my mum also pointed it out to me. The moon is so beautiful I love her.

The full moon of June's happening on the same day (ish) as the solstice which is rare- she's gonna be really pretty tonight and tomorrow too! Go look at the moon everybody, all this weekend she's gonna look fairly full. If it's cloudy I will flip some tables. but luckily I'm not in a big city with as much light pollution now so I'll probably be able to see her well :)

I love the moon :D

I would give all the money in the world for a re-release of the twilight dvd commentary 15yrs later with complete no-holds-barred commentary from Kristen Stewart and Robert Patterson, cutting nothing. I want to know their every honest thought on every single scene. This is imperative.

Shinigami in the Silent Ward AU

At first, I wasn't planning to include Shinigami at all in this AU. But after some conceptualization in my head, I think I've got her role in the story down pat!

Shinigami isn't necessarily a character, but moreso an omnipotent force. While the megacorp's underground cult worships the god Amaterasu, Yuma prays to Shinigami in contrast. It's a practice he's performed ever since he heard the myth from fellow WDO members that the god of death watches over all detectives, giving them the strength and conviction to find the culprits they're searching for. The more a detective encounters death, the deeper their connection grows to Shinigami.

After the events of the Amaterasu Express Massacre, when a cult member disguised as one of the detectives set many of the drugged investigators aflame to protect his god from the plague of outsiders, the surviving Yuma exits the train with death clinging to him from all sides. That night, in the safety of the Furio home, Yuma prays to Shinigami once more, wishing for the strength he needs to see this mission through to the end. His cry for help does not go unheard. In his sleep, he's granted visions of an uncertain future, painted in unfamiliar colors. He doesn't know it yet, but in those moments, he's viewing the world through the eyes of a bedridden Makoto, weakened from losing half his spirit and using up all his power. And so, every night before he sleeps, Yuma prays, then gains visions of this mysterious man in his sleep in return, learning more and more about the cult as he does so. While the other detectives, including his own adoptive father Yakou, think Yuma is just having guilt-ridden dreams as a result of the massacre, one survivor knows better.

Vivia Twilight is all too familiar with the god of death Yuma prays to, for he worshipped her back when he was only a child. He wished for an escape from the cruel world he was trapped in under his abusive parents' roof. But the escape he was given wasn't the gentle cradle of death he had hoped for. Instead, he was cursed, plagued by unending visions of vengeful spirits and lost souls stuck in the mortal plane. They cried out for salvation, but Vivia could only listen. He endured the wails for his whole life, leading up to this point in time where Yuma claims he's been given a gift by Shinigami. Deep down, a burning rage sleeps within Vivia. But he keeps quiet, opting to observe Yuma and wait for the right moment to arrive. The moment when Vivia can tear down Yuma's beliefs and make him see what he sees, even if the only way to truly understand is for Yuma to die.
